STRs need to be scrubbed way back. Again, no one is removing rights, just imposing fees on those who impose their slop on residential neighborhoods with their rental hotel businesses.
“We’re not taking away your right to do what you want inside your home, we’re just planning to charge you an exorbitant fee to make you not want to do it.” I recognize the argument, I just reject it.

As one of those who has stayed in an Airbnb more than once, I believe I am part of that “slop” you are talking about. I don’t appreciate the insult.

Again, are we talking about that one time in band camp? Whether a single occasion or an ongoing issue, has anyone utilized the available means of dealing with the problem or is it just simpler to sit here and complain?
